About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

River Staycation / Fishing Dock / Kayak / FastWiFi

Perched under a canopy of trees on the banks of the Guadalupe River in Seguin, TX. One of two tiny homes on the property. Expansive outdoor space. Over 100' of riverfront. FREE kayaks. Great fishing from the dock or banks. Reconnect w/ the great outdoors: fire pit, outdoor shower, hammocks. Sleeps 4.

WATER LEVELS
The water levels in the photos are accurate. The water level has dropped 12 feet since March 2023, to rebuild the dam that created our lake. Because we're fed from the bottom of Canyon Lake, and because there is a certain flow required downstream from our property, we maintain a pretty consistent level/depth despite rainfall. We always have a minimum flow, but it varies based on rainfall. Water flow slows during summer/early fall, so plumes of button moss intermittently float up from the bottom and then downstream, collecting at water's edge.

Despite the lower levels, we are still in a great spot for kayaking, swimming, floating, wading, and fishing. It varies from ankle deep at the edge of the bank, 3-4 feet around the fishing dock, and over 10 feet in other areas. Additionally, there's no boat traffic so it's very calm and quiet here.

HIGHLIGHTS
- 1 bedroom / 1 bathroom / 400 square feet
- Sleeps 4
- 100' of riverfront with beach entry into water
- Kayaks included FREE
- Extensive outdoor space with propane grill, hammock, swinging chair, covered open-air dining / lounge area with big screen TV, fire pit, s'mores sticks, outdoor shower and half bath
- Fast WiFi (~350 Mbps)
- Smart TV
- Stocked with books, games, toys, puzzles
- Fully appointed kitchen w/ full size and countertop appliances
- Keurig w/ coffee bar
- Full size washer/dryer
- Comfortable mattresses
- Short drive to HEB, Walmart, Starbucks
- Centrally located to New Braunfels, San Marcos, San Antonio, Austin

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS
- Primary bedroom - 1 queen bed (locking door) with Winkbed premium mattress
- Loft - 3 twin beds (accessible via ladder with handrail, no privacy door, LOW 4' CEILING)

PLEASE NOTE
This is a tiny home, so the water heater is also tiny. This isn't the place for long indoor showers, and the tank needs time to refill between showers. But we do have an outdoor shower with a tankless water heater with a view of the water, which is second to none!

The Loft House is one of 2 tiny homes on the property, so the outdoor areas and riverfront may be shared with up to 4 guests from the other tiny home, the Bunk House. Your house is private (all to yourself) with your own attached front porch, as well as separate outdoor dining, grill, hammock chair, hammock, and paddles. The Shed, fire pit, outdoor area, and riverfront are shared with plenty of room to spread out.

If Meadow Lake Retreat Loft House is booked on your preferred dates, please check out the other tiny house on the property, Meadow Lake Retreat Bunk House. We also own Lake Nolte Retreat (tiny home on the adjacent lot) and Reiley Retreat (2 units of a duplex on the Guadalupe River in Seguin).

We live locally and are only a phone call away if you need anything. We also have local maintenance and housekeeping available for needs that may arise during your stay with us.

We love this place because it's quiet, near the end of a dead end country road with cows and lots of stars. But it's still super convenient (5 minutes) to many things like Walmart and HEB.

Right off I-10 and very centrally located to:
- essentials like HEB, Walmart, Starbucks, restaurants, movie theater (<6 miles)
- Gruene/New Braunfels/Schlitterbahn (20 miles)
- San Marcos outlet malls (25 miles)
- San Antonio (~40 miles)
- Austin (~50 miles)

You'll likely need a car to get around. HEB will deliver groceries to your doorstep via Shipt. Please check on Uber/DoorDash as those services seem to be intermittent here.

Reservations >2 weeks may require an additional cleaning fee.

NO smoking. Smoking of any kind (including tobacco, marijuana, e-cigarettes, vape pens, and hookahs) is prohibited at this property, inside and out.

NO pets. Although we are pet lovers, this is a shared property with other guests who may be sensitive (allergic, fearful) to pets.

NO large parties or gatherings allowed. We have neighbors with full-time residence nearby who will report back with excessive noise or groups that exceed the home limit. Parking limited to 2 vehicles.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fenced private yard, and a coffee maker.

The river access, canoes, paddles and life jackets were all available for our use, including other floats to enjoy the water which was a great temperature. The tiny house was lovely, clean, and accommodating, with nice touches like hammocks and swings for relaxing outdoors. My family and I had an excellent time.

Sweet and Cozy

I was pleasantly surprised that this rental was just as advertised. It was CLEAN, the kayaks and paddles were in working order and the place was so inviting. We loved the outside shower, coming back up from the lake, the shower was the cherry on top. We vow to be back and maybe take in a full week instead of 3 days. Thank you to all who made this a pleasant stay ❤️

Great little get away

We had a great time and would stay here again. Only 2 recommendations: spray for wasps or have plenty of wasp spray on hand. There were several wasp nests by the front door and outside shower. Second was the steps down to the water, that last step is a big one and someone with bad knees would struggle.

Owners were very kind. Everything in the home is just as listed. No surprises. The home is really near and I can’t remember a more peaceful morning than sitting on the river as the sun rose. 10/10 100% would recommend.

We truly enjoyed our stay. The home was perfect size for us and had a full kitchen so we were able to cook all our meals. The home is in a great location with Walmart/HEB being 8 minutes away so if you need anything it very close by. The area is so peaceful and relaxing.
